To be fair I must admit there is a lot of good points.
Generally iT is a huge touristic hotel visited usually by Israelian and Russian people.

* Rooms are not huge, but big enough, there's enough space in the wardrobe, bathrooms are ok, and also the view from a balcony is very nice. Furniture is a little bit outdated (but in a very good state). There is a big flat TV set, but unfortunately NO MINI BAR, NO DRINKING WATER...

* Staff is usually very helpful, eager to explain what is necessary, always with a positive attitude and smile - nothing to complain about, very polite and attentive bar tenders and waiters! Usually they speak English (most of them, apart from cleaning service people).

* Pools are quite big, althouth the area is very noisy (because of screaming children, but this is not the hotel's fault), there is enough sunbeds for everyone.

* Entertainment? Average...Entertainment was made in Hebrew, it was Hanukka time, so most of guests were from Israel. We understand that, but nevertheless we had to look for another entertainment outside the hotel... As Hannuka finished there was a nice live music (international). I would recommend everyone to see the WOW Show in Isrotel Theatre opposite to the hotel - it was really fantastic.

* The variety of food was excellent - we enjoyed big breakfasts, in very few hotels I have seen such good breakfasts. We loved Israelian bread (as good as Polish one). There was always a lot of vegetables. I was a little disapointed that there was no hot drinks for dinner - a lot of people had cold including us (it was December), and we could get only very cold drinks.

Now the bad points...

* Bad management of the breakfast and dining room. I don't blame the staff because they were very polite and proffessional, I just think it is badly managed. Almost EVERY DAY, during EVERY MEAL there was a LOOOOOOOOOONG queue to the dining room. I have never seen anything like this in any other hotel. The staff people are controlling people entering the dining room, because the dining room is too small for everyone. So every morning guests go down to the lobby and they must stand in a queue for 10 minutes (less if they are lucky, sometimes more) and wait for a free table. Finally, when they get in, they must deal with a HUGE CROWD. It is really very crowdy and noisy, there is very little pleasure in eating there... To get your food you must watch every step not to jump on a waiter holding a full tray, you must look down not to fall over a screaming and running child - it is HORRIBLE. At last, when you've chosen your meals you need to sit by a tiny table with a dusty decoration (fake cactus) and eat, listening to a dreadful scream of dozens of children. Let's face the true - THE DINING ROOMS IS TOO SMALL FOR SUCH AN AMOUNT OF GUESTS!

* The dining room has an ugly look. There is a carpet, so whenever someone drops a food (children do it every time) it lands on the carpet - it is not very hygenic, the carpet is probably very dirty and smelly. The dining room should have ceramic tiles! Tables are extremely small and very close to each other, so usually you need to walk carefully not to hit unintentionally anyone sitting by his table. Tables are decorated in a fake cactuses in pots - WHAT FOR? It is ugly and it is always dusty, nobody cleans them! A small candle for dinner would be enough, I would recommend to throw all those fake plants away! There are also fake orange trees in pots - it's not in a good taste... So little could be done to change so much!

* Another bad point about the hotel is that it is TYPICALLY for young couples with a lot of children (a norm in Israel). Though it may not be a bad point for everybody. If you want to travel as a couple without children don't do to King Solomon, because you will not rest as you would like to. Children constitute maybe over 50% of guests and I think do not exaggarate! As you can imagine you will not eat a single meal without listening to children crying or screaming. If you are unlucky to have spoiled children as your neighbours you will probably not sleep without earplugs. Don't get me wrong, I love children, I am expecting a baby, but being in public place I would expect other parents to react whenever their children do not behave. Unfortunately Israelian parents usually don't do anything...

I would not choose Isrotel King Solomon next time. Unless they do something about the dining room and make more separate space for people travelling without children. Everything else was generally ok.

I have the impression that this hotel was built as a five star hotel but is now operating with several fewer. The standard bedrooms are large and well furnished with good bathrooms. The toiletries are adequate but there are no bathrobes, face flannels or turn down service. There is a fridge but it is empty. There are no signs of bottles of water, ice or advice how to find them. Room 603 is separated from a family room by a single door which meant we were kept awake by a baby crying. We moved rooms but had no help for this.
The reception staff were more variable than you would expect in a hotel of this size. Sometimes they were friendly and helpful but often poorly informed. The concierge's desk was intermittently occupied even in working hours.
Next the food. As you would expect in Israel the breakfasts are buffett and are good with a reasonable choice. Chefs are there to make nice omlets or fried eggs although there is a queue. The trouble for us was we were stupid enough to go half board. Dinner is also a buffet and can only be described as swill. There is a variety of food including an enormous joint of meat which is so overlooked to be black and not possible to know if it is lamb or beef. There are excellent mashed potatoes but mostly they are cold although the staff will bring hot ones when asked. There are few fresh vegetables and a limited range of salad items. Any fresh fruit is chopped so small as to be unattractive. (I guessed that like the thief proof hangars in the bedroom they do not want whole oranges, bananas or apples stolen) One good and unusual thing was there was sugar free cake for diabetics.
WiFi is not free but expensive. In my view free WiFi should be part of the service in all hotels and I am as reluctant to pay for it as to pay to use the lift or take a bath. The receptionist said that free WiFi was not usual in Eilat so his hotel has an opportunity to steal a march on its competitors.

I stayed here for two nights as part of a trip organized by the union where I work - a common arrangement in Israel. We were a big group, and I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly and smoothly the check-in was managed. In addition, there were a few minor problems with our room - these were taken care of very quickly and pleasantly. This is a big hotel and there are long lines for the buffet in the dining room, especially at dinner time. The food is varied but nothing special, but then again, I think we might be spoiled in Israel by the lavish buffets in hotels and at weddings. I'm sure tourists will enjoy this hotel.

food good
staff exceptional.....led by an amazing woman called tal alluch....nothig is too much to ask
